For this question, refer to the excerpt from Great Expectations by Charles Dickens on the Unit Test Reading Passages sheet. In line 6, the word "likeness" most nearly means . a) picture b) kindness c) friendship d) stories

The excerpt that is not mentioned in question is:

"I give Pirrip as my father's family name, on the authority of his

tombstone and my sister - Mrs. Joe Gargery, who married the

blacksmith. As I never saw my father or my mother, and never saw

any likeness of either of them (for their days were long before the

days of photographs), my first fancies regarding what they were

like, were unreasonably derived from their tombstones."

Referring to this excerpt that mentions the word 'likeness' from the Great Expectations by Charles Dickens the answer is option (A) Picture.

Explanation:

The word 'likeness' means the quality that resembles or is alike.

In the above-mentioned excerpt, the word 'likeness' is used to refer to picture.

As mentioned in the excerpt, that in those days there were no camera and photographs, so Pip, the protagonist of the novel, have never seen his parents picture.

The protagonist of the novel, Pirrip Pip, is an orphan who was taken care of by his elder sister who is married to a blacksmith, Joe Gargery.

As Pip stands near the tombstones of his parents he fancied the picture of them as their tombstones looked like.

So, the correct answer is option A, Picture.
